CORRECTION (3:53pm): This is actually a reference to Rhonda Cox, an associate producer at Blizzard. We apologize for the error. She’s OK with the comparison, though!
Original article follows:
We already knew UFC fighter Ronda Rousey plays World of Warcraft sometimes (as a Night Elf Hunter), and the fact that the folks at Blizzard love easter eggs, so seeing a small in-game tribute to her is really no surprise.
But it’s still pretty cool! Her in-game alter ego is a human Monk, called Rhonda, and she’s hanging around the alpha build’s Monk Class Hall. Can’t miss her.
Blizzplanet’s clip shows her exact location and features another in-game version of a famous WoW player: Mina Kunis a.k.a. Mila Kunis. This character was already in the game though, as a Garrison follower, she just moved to a new location in Legion.
